10. Tom Brosseau: What I Mean to Say Is Goodbye (Loveless)
The voice is unmistakably in its own class -- a high, plaintive, almost feminine cry -- and the beautifully sparse songs sound as if they could've fit on Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music.
'~ Chicago Tribune, Greg Kot 'Brosseau has captured the sparse intimacy of old-school country and folk: You could play some of his less-embelllished songs and easily convince someone they were recorded 50 years ago.
'~ TIME OUT NY – Jem Aswad '5 out of 5. Fans of Woody Guthrie, Devendra Barnhart, and Townes Van Zandt take note. Heartbreak, happiness, and hometowns: Tom Brosseau has it all on his new album… listeners will discover a talented new voice that skillfully mixes traditional instrumental work with innovative vocals. Brosseau offers up simple and beautiful music track after track.
